Persistence Market Research Released New Market Report According to a new market report
published by Persistence Market Research “Global Market Study on Pyridine:
Increasing Demand for Synthetic Pyridine to Drive Growth During Forecast Period
2015 -2025 ”, the global pyridine market is estimated to reach US$ 1,741.4 Mn by 2025
from US$ 786.4 Mn in 2015.
Pyridine is a toxic and soluble flammable liquid base with a distinct, strong odor. It is often
considered the parent compound of several naturally occurring organic compounds. It is the
preferred choice as a precursor to agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Initially, pyridine was
extracted from coal tar or obtained as a by-product of coal gasification. The process was
very expensive and inefficient as coal tar constituted only 0.1–0.2% of pyridine after
extraction. Currently, pyridine and its derivatives are produced synthetically. The most
commonly used reactions for pyridine synthesis are Chichibabin synthesis, Bönnemann
cyclization, and Cobalt-catalyzed alkyne-nitrile cyclotrimerization, etc.
By region, the market in Asia Pacific has been estimated to account for 51.6% volume share
of the overall pyridine market by 2015 end, followed by Europe and North America. Due to
increase in usage of pyridine and its derivatives in agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals
segments in Asia Pacific, the pyridine market in the region is projected to expand at a higher
than average CAGR of 9.9% over 2015–2025 in terms of revenue. The U.S. pyridine market,
which has been estimated to account for 89.5% revenue share of the overall market in North
America by 2015 end, is expected to be driven by increasing adoption of pyridine and its
derivatives in chemicals and pharmaceuticals segments. The pyridine market in the Middle
East & Africa is estimated to register increased revenue due to a growth of pharmaceuticals
and chemicals segments in the region. Europe market is anticipated to witness lower
revenue growth in the coming years as compared to other regions due to the economic
downturn in the region.

Globally, pyridine N-oxide segment volume is estimated to expand at a lower than average
CAGR of 7.4% over 2015–2025. Demand for 2-Methyl-5-Ethylpyridine (MEP) and gammapicoline is expected grow significantly due to increasing application of these product types in
chemicals segment. Alpha picoline finds wide application as a solvent in chemicals,

pharmaceuticals, and food industries. The segment is projected to exhibit moderate growth
over the forecast period. Key growth contributor for alpha picoline segment is 2vinylpyridine, which is used as a raw material for styrene-butadiene-2-vinylpyridine
terpolymer latexes (SBV latexes). Beta picoline is used to produce Vitamin B3. In terms of
value, beta picoline segment is projected to experience significant growth rate over the
forecast period. This is mainly attributed to rising demand for niacin in developing regions
such as APAC and Middle East & Africa.

Asia Pacific is the most attractive region in terms of CAGR and market share in the global
pyridine market. India has been estimated to account for 24.4 % of the total APAC pyridine
market by 2015 end due to expected increase in domestic pyridine production by 40%. In
terms of value, gamma-picoline segment is expected to experience the highest growth rate
during the forecast period in the Asia Pacific market. The Middle East & Africa accounts for
the smallest market share. However, it is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.9% in terms of
value over the forecast period. Food segment is expected to expand at the highest CAGR in
terms of volume during the forecast period in the Middle East & Africa market. Pyridine
manufacturers are strengthening their presence in the regulated markets of Japan, North
America and Europe as well as in key emerging markets. They are also focusing on local tieups and out-licensing of local companies in order to strengthen their regional presence.

Drivers and Trends
Growing demand for pyridine and its derivatives arising from pharmaceuticals and
agrochemicals applications due to multiple chemical functionalities is expected to drive the
market during the forecast period. Pyridine was used only as a solvent in chemicals,
adhesives, and pharmaceuticals, but pyridine derivatives are now increasingly being used as
starting material in the manufacture of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, food-flavoring
additives, etc. Pyridine derivatives are also used as a denaturant for antifreeze mixtures.
Advancement in biocatalysts processes, increase in demand for synthetic pyridine, and
increasing applications of pyridine in pesticides and herbicides are some other factors
driving the growth of the global pyridine market. Extensive research is being conducted by
companies to increase chemical functionalities of pyridine and its derivatives in order to
